field-effect transistor: see transistor transistor, three-terminal, solid-state electronic device used for amplification and switching. It is the solid-state analog to the triode electron tube ; the transistor has replaced the electron tube for virtually all common applications. ..... Click the link for more information. . field-effect transistor [′fēld i‚fekt tran′zis·tər] (electronics) A transistor in which the resistance of the current path from source to drain is modulated by applying a transverse electric field between grid or gate electrodes; the electric field varies the thickness of the depletion layer between the gates, thereby reducing the conductance.

That's why engineers also describe the devices as field-effect transistors. The report also shows how the scientists fabricate field-effect transistors from carbon nanotubes with any variable band-gap desired. Neugroschel and colleagues, proposes a methodology for using corrected data to extract the intrinsic negative temperature bias instability (NBTI) rate in high-k, p-channel metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors (p-MOSFETs). |
